there's there is a saying in benghazi when i was there that when benghazi sneezes the rest of libya catches a cold and i think that really speaks to the grievances of this region and the militia problem is part of it. the oil factor is another issue. nearly two-thirds of the oil comes from this area and what is a very fractured security landscape and the power throughout clip of -- libya was especially acute in the eastern part especially in benghazi and we saw a period of attacks and a worsening security situation really since the july 7 election, rocket attacks, thwarted car bombs, assassinations of qadhafi air officials and militias running around in the open and of course the culmination of this was the attack on the consulate. now in my paper, i define eastern instability for the eastern problems into really three categories. the first is sort of the move toward economy or federalism, these grievances. in many cases this is a concern but somewhat from the scene after the july 7 election as the second issue is salafi militancy. obviously this is a huge concern and i will talk about that

the attacks on the civilians in benghazi were attacks on america. we are grateful for the assistance we received from the libyan government and from the libyan people. there should be no doubt that we will be relentless in tracking down the killers and bringing them to justice. and i also appreciate that in recent days the leaders of other countries in the region, including egypt, tunisia, and yemen, have taken steps to secure our diplomatic facilities and called for calm. and so have religious authorities around the globe. but understand the attacks of the last two weeks are not simply an assault on america. they are also an assault on the very ideals upon which the united nations was founded. the notion that people can resolve their differences peacefully, that diplomacy can take the place of war, that in an interdependent world all of us have a stake in working towards greater opportunity and security for our citizens. if we are serious about upholding these ideals, it will not be enough to put more guards in front of an embassy or to put out sta

first of all, we had no actionable intelligence to suggest that any attack on our facility in benghazi was imminent. in cairo, we did have indications that there was the risk that the video might spark some protests, and our embassy, in fact, acted accordingly, and had called upon the egyptian authorities to reinforce our facility. what we have seen with respect to the security response, obviously, we had security personnel in benghazi, a significant number, and tragically, among those four that were killed were two of our security personnel. but what happened, obviously, overwhelmed the security we had in place, which is why the president ordered additional reinforcements to tripoli and why elsewhere in the world we have been working with governments to ensure they take up their obligations to protect us and we reinforce where necessary. >> the president and secretary of state have talked about a mob mentality. that's my words, not their words, but they talked about the tyranny of mobs. operating in this part of the world. here is the reality. if you look at foreign aid, u.s. direct f
